This paper focuses on Data Domain Boost and the many benefits it provides compared to doing traditional backups. The purpose of this paper is to explain the technical and business reasons why DD boost will change the way customers do backup.

Virtualization and cloud computing have permeated throughout IT and the enterprise, with users putting down a credit card to provision a new application and IT struggling with the challenges of keeping the lights on while trying to become change agents that LOBs demand. What can enterprises do now to accelerate their transition to delivering IT as a Service, with streamlined provisioning of applications, storage and servers to meet ever-changing business demands? Join us for this webinar to hear Cloudcor CEO Khazret Sapenov and Slashdot industry expert Michael Krieger discuss the steps that all businesses - whether or not they are currently cloud-based - to take to improve the speed with which IT operations can deliver on functionality and features promised to users.

In this white paper, IDC examines the evolution of storage controllers, from traditional HDD controllers to "hybrid array" controllers capable of optimizing flash media and multi-core CPUs. It talks about how EMC provides an excellent case study since we have been at the forefront of this evolution.

In this paper, the SMB Group examines different cloud computing models, discusses the types of requirements that each can best address, and consider what midmarket businesses should look for in a cloud solutions provider.

Prior to server virtualization, IT landscapes were plagued by server sprawl and underutilized capacity, which were brought on by data growth and the one-application, one-server requirement. In order to meet growing capacity demands, organizations added servers until that demand began to outstrip the ability to achieve economies of scale. Server virtualization provided a consolidation and cost-containment solution by fundamentally parsing hardware and software and dynamically allocating resources throughout the environment. Initially driven by its ability to deliver on these core use cases, server virtualization continues to guide IT and business strategy.

Storage is at the heart of any data center application. Whether you're managing hundreds of virtual machine images or millions of records, you need to be able to save, search for, and retrieve that data in the optimal amount of time. This guide will detail storage strategies that will help you gain access to high-speed Flash storage, and bring it into your data center, regardless of the size of your operation. We'll explore how you can manage your storage needs, optimize storage performance, and do so while saving money at the same time.

Unparalleled growth. It's hard to find two words that better describe what's happening today in the world of digital storage and virtualization. In an industry report on storage growth released in December, research firm IDC predicted the amount of storage deployed will more than double every two years, reaching over 40,000 Exabytes by the end of the decade. Growth is just one part of the puzzle. Major changes for storage deployment are taking place today and perhaps the most prominent of which is the move to the cloud. What are the latest technology trends having impact on this dynamic marketplace? This whitepaper will give insight in a number of areas, including; A contextual look at the evolution and history of virtualized storage in the enterprise; A breakdown of current market forces and trends impacting the industry; Details and overview of major offerings and solutions from the top vendors in virtualized storage today.
